   Chapter 595 Dark Horse Italy

   Ye Gambler couldn't help but startled after hearing this.

  ‘Betting to win or lose is not a bet? ’

   Seeing Gambling King Ye's expression, Yang Chen grinned, he is not a fool, and betting against Gambling King Ye, no matter how much he wins, the other party will be somewhat unhappy.

  If he loses too much, the old guy feels distressed and is unwilling to sell his shares to him, then it will be a waste of time.

  Don't blame Yang Chen for being unreasonable.

  Gamblers, no matter how high their status is, they are the most unbelievable and uncontrollable group of people.

  Anyone, once he takes the path of gambling-betting, all behaviors are out of control. He thinks that he can't gamble in his mind, but his hands and feet are not obeyed.

  ‘If you lose, you want to get your money back, and if you win, you want to double. ’

  ‘Most gamblers want to gamble when they lose, and want to gamble even more when they win, so the deeper they sink, the more they gamble, and the more they lose. ’

   Throughout the 5,000-year history of China, from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, gambling has entered people's lives.

  From the early days of cockfighting lackeys to the now renovated, various gambling methods of different forms, looking at the north and south of the Yangtze River, inside and outside the Great Wall, from the countryside to the city, there is no place where there is a lack of gambling - gambling.

   Those who make a fortune by gambling can only win temporarily.

  For example, Ye Gambling King, he is a very typical example.

  The world says that he has superb gambling skills, the king of gambling, the saint of gambling, and various titles, but most of his worth is earned on his own gambling-betting?

   Obviously not.

   If there is no gambling game, no matter how powerful he is, Ye Han will not be able to accumulate hundreds of millions of worth.

  ‘I often walk by the river, how can I not get wet shoes. ’

   Don't even say that you lose nine out of ten bets. Some people just lose once, and they fail completely.

The    lotus leaf dispute is the best proof.

  Don't easily believe what gamblers say, and don't overestimate their skin.

  It’s good if there is no entanglement of interests. Once there is an entanglement of interests, how much is face worth?

   In order to block the old rivals, Ye Gambler first opened a horse racing track, and then opened a gambling-boat, and was dedicated to making trouble for the Dutch Gambler.

  From this point of view, it is not difficult to see that even if the other party is not a narrow-minded person, he is not a very generous person.

   "Mr. Ye, Mr. Yang"

   Soon, the person in charge of Caesar's Palace who had greeted Yang Chen at the door before came to the two of them.

Without too much courtesy, after greeting the two of them, Caesars Palace President Cuves said: "Two, we only accept bets with a personal upper limit of no more than 100 million US dollars. You can take a look first. Pick a team and then make a decision.”

Before    came, Cuvez already knew the situation here, so he specially prepared a copy of the information of each World Cup team and brought it here.

   As for why the betting limit is limited, the main reason is that if the two-person bet amount is too large, the casino will take a lot of risk.

  Casinos and gaming companies are in series with each other. Although most of the funds will flow to gaming companies, casinos also have to bear some risks.

  The bigger the money, the bigger the risk the casino takes.

  Reputation is above everything else in regular casinos. They will not smash their signboards for temporary interests.

   The various tricks behind sports competitions have a long history. This World Cup is in Europe, even if the American bookmakers have long hands, they will not be able to reach them.

  The world's gaming giants are located in the United Kingdom, Germany and Asia in Europe, and Las Vegas in the United States.

  The World Cup is football, and Asian countries have always been a stinky chess basket when it comes to football, which does not affect the World Cup at all.

  Although American gaming giants have strength, the national football of the United States is rugby, and football is only the fifth sport for Americans.

   Therefore, the gaming companies in Las Vegas also have little influence on football events.

   can’t affect it, so naturally everyone won’t take too much risk. There is an upper limit. Within this range, even if someone wins a lot of money, at most, the gaming company will make less money.

Kuweis's words did not arouse the reaction of Yang Chen and Ye Gambling King. As the gambling king, Ye Han naturally knew the inner truth, and although Yang Chen didn't understand the filth in it very well, he also knew that in any industry with huge profits, Nothing is out of control.

   The well-known club stars in Europe and the United States in later generations are worth tens of millions of euros, and the sky-high transfer fees and annual salaries cannot be afforded by selling tickets and TV rights alone.

   Any industry needs to take certain risks, but gaming companies are not on this list.

   First of all, the bookmaker needs no cost other than the paper and labor cost to print the lottery tickets.

  After the market opens, the odds of a game are set by the bookmakers. Even if they cannot control the game, they can use the odds to ensure that they will not lose money.

   Therefore, the winners get all the money from the losers, and the betting company only has the problem of making more and making less, and there is no problem of losing money.

   It's just that, like Yang Chen's betting on the championship team in advance, there is a minimum limit on the odds, it won't reduce the odds to the lowest because the market is overweight.

   Of course, ordinary people definitely can't enjoy this kind of treatment. Only with a single shot like Yang Chen and Ye Gambling King, they can make tens of millions of bets, and hundreds of millions of bets will make the gaming company make a profit.

   At this time, Ye Han stopped gambling, just like Yang Chen, he looked at the information of the teams that entered the World Cup.

   After looking at it for a while, Ye Gambling King looked up at Yang Chen, and asked casually, "Achen, do you think that team is good?"

   Yang Chen asked back, "Uncle Ye, are you going to bet that one?"

   Ye Gambling King didn't hide it, he opened his mouth and said: "Germany, France, Britain, Italy, West Germany, Spain, no accident, the champions are nothing more than these teams."

   "Uh" Yang Chen couldn't help but be taken aback when he heard the words, 'All of them are strong teams in Europe, not a single one from other regions. ’

   Yang Chen pretended not to know, and asked in doubt, "Why exclude Brazil and the defending champion Argentina team?"

   Ye Gambling King closed the information in his hand and explained with a smile: "Because this World Cup will be held in Spain, do you think those European teams will let teams from other regions take away the championship?"

"Uh…"

  'Nima, what you said makes sense, but Yang Chen couldn't find a reason to refute it. ’

   Yang Chen pursed his lips and said, "Uncle Ye, are you going to pick which team?"

   "Germany" Ye Gambling King didn't mean the slightest humility, and directly stated the team he wanted to bet on.

   World Cup Champions over the years:

  1930 Uruguay

  1934 Italy

  1938 Italy

  1942 not held

  1946 not held

  1950 Uruguay

  1954 Germany

  1958 Brazil

  1962 Brazil

  1966 UK

  1970 Brazil

  1974 Germany

  1978 Argentina

  Yang Chen looked at the ranking of champions on the data, except that the dark horse of Italy won the championship in the first two World Cups, all other World Cups belonged to the existence of soy sauce.

  The Italian team is strong, but it has missed eight World Cup championships, so it is naturally looked down on a lot.

Yang Chen threw the information on the gambling table, and said very neatly, "Then I'll choose Italy, its odds are twice that of Germany, and it won two World Cup championships earlier, so it belongs to the category of dark horses. If you win, you will definitely make a lot of money.”
